We have designed your phone to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each device you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device's ringer equiv- alence number, or REN on the bottom of your phone.
If you use more than one phone or other de- vice on the line, add up all of the RENs. If the total is more than five (three in rural areas), your telephones might not ring. If ringer oper- ation is impaired, remove a device from the line.
Important: Cordless phones such as this one require AC power to operate. When the AC power is off, you cannot dial out or re- ceive incoming calls using your cordless phone. For this reason, a cordless phone should not be your only telephone. To be safe, you should also have a phone that does not require AC power to operate (not a cordless phone) so you can still make and receive calls if there is an AC power failure.
Some cordless phones operate at frequen- cies that might cause interference to nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize or prevent such interference, the base of the cordless phone should not be placed near or on top of a TV or VCR.
Your telephone operates on standard radio frequencies as allocated by the FCC. Even though the access protection code prevents unauthorized use of your phone line, it is possible for other radio units operating on similar frequencies within a certain area to unintentionally intercept your conversations and/or cause interference. This lack of priva- cy can occur with any cordless phone.
